So my wife and myself just came from Brazil where we went to attend a friend's wedding. We really had a good time... however, today, I received a call from my bank indicating that, after I had left Brazil (which I can prove with ticket stubs and passport stamps) someone had charged US$3,500 to my credit cards in various purchases... Some Brazilian thief obviously found a way to my wallet, took down the number and made a copy of the card, and then went bananas and spent like crazy until the bank noticed and called me. Obviously, today, I cancelled every single credit / debit / purchase card I have.
I was wondering if anyone had had any previous experience with this and how the fraud claims had gone. I am told by the Bank that every purchase is insured so if I can prove fraud I should not be liable... but I am wondering if this wourd really be the case... Naturally, I am not too happy to finance the purchases of some Brazilian thief...
Thanks a lot!
